Somebody goofed — and now AMD’s unannounced Ryzen 9000X3D desktop processors have been partially revealed. But like Intel’s new Arrow Lake desktop CPUs, it doesn’t look like they’ll be a huge performance improvement on their predecessors. If so, that’s a shame given how poorly received AMD’s Ryzen 9000 was to begin with.

Industry analysts say that while AMD's new GPU series is an improvement, it is still behind Nvidia's Blackwell.

AMD continues to make excellent progress on the hardware and software front for advancing AI. However, AMD’s performance claims are unrealistic since they again did not use Nvidia’s optimization software. Nonetheless, the MI325 is fast and boasts a huge amount of HBM3E (288GB).
